Time 40m

Yield About 20 meatballs

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus 1/4 cup
1/2 cup grated onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup diced day-old bread, soaked in milk
1 pound ground beef or lamb
1 egg
1 teaspoon fresh oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch nutmeg
Grated zest of 1 lemon
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Flour, for dusting
12 lemon wedges
Mint leaves

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet set over medium heat. Cook the onion and garlic until softened but not browned. Let cool and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Squeeze the excess milk from the bread and add the bread to the bowl. Add the beef, egg, oregano, coriander, cumin, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Mix by hand until smooth. Form into little meatballs, about 1 ounce each.
  • Heat the remaining 1/4 cup oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Dust the meatballs in flour and shallow-fry them until golden brown. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  • To serve: Place on a platter and garnish with lemon wedges and torn mint leaves.

I followed the recipe exactly and the meatballs came out perfectly. They were moist and flavorful, and the sauce was delicious. I will definitely be making these again.

These meatballs were amazing! I used ground turkey instead of beef and they were still so flavorful.

The meatballs were a little dry for my taste, but the sauce was delicious. I'll try adding more moisture to the meatballs next time.
